The Places You Find Love lyrics

It was raining

When I met you

You were soaking wet

No time to be impressed

And I remember

So much later on

I knew that you were someone

I would not forget

Everybody's searching

Hungry for the glamour

You know too many hearts are in a rush

No matter how you try to

You can't explain the places you find love

I can't explain

But I can feel it

All around me

The need to find the place

Where feelings can be safe

It's not money

That buys happiness

No, it's not the shine of silver

That puts the heart to rest

Everybody's pushing

The clock is always running

And no one ever seems to have enough

And when you least expect it

You come upon the places you find love, love

Remember

In a flash the feeling can hit you

After all the times that it's missed you

Reaching deep inside

To find your secret heart, yeah, yeah

Look around, you notice you're flying

And for once you're not even trying

City lights below you

Like a million tiny stars

It's a river

Never stopping

Winding in and out

But you should never doubt

It will lead you

To the ocean someday

There's no way to fight it

Let it carry you away

Everybody's dreaming

Waiting for the feeling

That moment when they finally rise above

But it's always in the giving

That gets you to the places you find love

Remember

In the poorest part of town

Where the sun never reaches the ground

And seeing's not believing

The feeling stays alive

Little children laughing and playing

'Cause they haven't learned to start hating

Never giving up, no

'Cause they still believe in love, sweet love, love, love, love, love, love

Remember

In a flash the feeling can hit you

After all the times that it's missed you

Reaching deep inside

To find your secret heart, yeah, yeah

Look around, you notice you're flying

And for once you're not even trying

City lights below you

Like a million tiny stars, oh, yeah

In the poorest part of town

Where the sun never reaches the ground

And seeing's not believing

The feeling stays alive

Little children laughing and playing

'Cause they haven't learned to start hating

Never giving up, no

'Cause they still believe in love, sweet love

In a flash the feeling can hit you, it's gonna hit you

After all the times that it's missed you

reaching deep inside, reach down deep inside

To find your secret heart, find your heart

Look around, you notice you're flying

And for once you're not even trying

City lights below you

Like a million tiny stars, oh, yeah
